Nebraska recruiting: Plenty of newsmakers during Music City Bowl week

The recruiting machine churns all week. Join us Monday through Friday nights when we recap Nebraska recruiting news, offering analysis and context.

After a week in Nashville, Tenn., for the Music City Bowl, our daily recruiting notebooks are back — and this one is packed.

In the past few days, one Nebraska target the Huskers seem destined to get continues to gain more national attention and more offers. Nebraska made the short list of schools for a 2017 wide receiver and a 2017 corner, and a 2018 top target is moving across the country, which could hurt Nebraska’s chances of landing him.

Here’s the biggest news from the past week:

Jamire Calvin gets a few more offers

Nebraska has been recruiting 4-star wide receiver Jamire Calvin hard the past few months, and a few schools are starting to realize why.

On Dec. 16, Texas offered the 5-foot-9, 175-pound receiver. On Dec. 29, Oregon did the same. And Calvin announced on New Year’s Day that Baylor has now offered the receiver, as well.

This puts Nebraska’s recruitment of Radley-Hiles in a bit of a bind. The 5-foot-10, 175-pound corner has said his leader is Florida. He’ll obviously be closer to the Gators now.

And Nebraska’s West Coast recruitment strategy will now have to change slightly with Radley-Hiles out of the picture. There’s no doubt Nebraska will still try to get Radley-Hiles up to Lincoln for an official visit in the fall and they’ll surely try and make it to Florida to visit the corner. But the move makes it just a little more difficult to recruit Radley-Hiles since Nebraska’s hotbed is California, not Florida.

Radley-Hiles is the No. 6 corner in the 2018 class and was the No. 5 recruit out of California. 247sports Crystal Ball predictions had Nebraska in the lead with a 40 percent chance to land Radley-Hiles.

Darrian Felix

Nebraska made the top five schools for a 2017 running back.

Darrian Felix, a 3-star all-purpose back from Fort Myers, Fla., put Nebraska among the ranks of Clemson, North Carolina, Oregon and Tennessee.
